A FIRE.


+. q. Senter's Cabinet Shop
Burned TO the Ground.
At 10 o'clock last night, an alarm of
fire was turned in from box 62. Engines
"Moore" and "Kuhrts" repaired to the
scene, and found a cabinet and carpen-
ter shop, corner OF Vine and Second
streets, in flames. The ''Kuhrts" quickly
got stream on from an adjacent zapja,
but the building was too far gone, and
proved total loss, together with its
CONTENTS. The shop belonged to f. G..
senter, and was valued at sl,50o. in
sured for $500 in the Continental, w.
r. Burke, Agent. Mr.. Senter said that
there had been no fire in the shop all
day, and he has no enemies who would
burn him out. 1t is very probable that
some tramps entered the building, and
accidentally set fire to it.

was a frequent visitor to this place
last winter, was captured and taken
to Mobile on the 14th INST. He was
tried before Mayor Owen and two
cases OF burglary aud one of larceny
made out against him, for which he
vas held in default of bonds OF $500
in each case, aud on another charge
of attempted robbery was commit
ted without bail. Cage was chased
from here several times by Sheriff
Clark aud posse but was always
successful in making his escape.
He was charged with several house
breakings aud was thought to be
responsible for nearly all the bur-
glaries here last winter. He WAS
supposed to have been harDOred by
colored wench, who escaped pun
ishment IN the hope of catching
Cage. We rejoice that lie is safe ut
